Remapping

Modify binds_pc.cfg[1]
  1. Backup <path-to-game>\binds_pc.cfg and open it with the preferred text editor.
  2. Find the following section:
  3. ### THESE BINDINGS ARE COPIED DIRECTLY FROM THE XBOX 360 BINDS
    
    ### CONTROLLER 1
  4. First part is for the controller and second one is for the keyboard and mouse. Sections are formatted as following:
  5. setbind/addbind <player number> <game command> <device controller/mouse/keyboard> <device number> <key/button/axis> <axis values>
  6. So as an example, secondary added binding (addbind) for punching set to keyboard key S:
  7. addbind 0 COMMAND_PUNCH           KEYBOARD   0 KEY_S           -1.0 1.0 1.0
  8. Make desired changes and save the file.

Notes

### CONTROLLER 2 is for second player (player 1, device 1) which is never used.
Example commands and keys are listed at the top of the file.
In-game button prompts will respect the changes made in the file.

DirectInput

Enable DirectInput
  • Add usedirectinputapi = 1 into default_pc.cfg.

Notes

Configuration doesn't respect button placement or number, causing buttons to be misassigned.
Game will continue to use Xbox button prompts.

Controller remapping

Remap controls
  1. Use the x360ce's 64-bit variant for XInput wrapping.
  2. Copy xinput1_3.dll and rename it to xinput9_1_0.dll.
